I'm on a Quest to learn some "Traditional Diatonic Instrumentals" from Dave's "Essential Blues Harmonica Listening" list.

Here's one I selected.

This is the 1st song I attempted to learn when I was a beginner. I got about 1/2 thru the song but put it on the shelf because I couldn't play it clean and in time. About a month ago I decided it was time to learn the tune in it's entirety. I'm still not completely happy with how clean the IV Chord triplets are, but it's getting there. :-)

First-ever I Touched a Backtrack - Shuffle - Impro

To show you a difference in my development I share my first-ever backtrack recording using a Hohner Rocket C harmonica.

It is interesting because I sent it to Mr. Ronnie Shellist who wrote me a few building criticism.

"Sounds to me like you are trying to feel your way around the instrument for now. Focus on opening up your breathing and holding notes and creating good tone!"

The date was 11.11.2015.

So do not give up learning :-)

Yesterday in the evening I first-ever touched the jazz. I used a Smooth Jazz Ab minor backtrack which was rather long enough to get familiar with and catch the feeling (7 min 26 sec). I uploaded only the last 2:18 of my trial recording.

The honor was for me to mix the recorded tracks of my Hungarian friends' band for the memory of Muddy Waters.

My Hungarian blues harmonica mentor (Mr. Bela Sandor) recommended me the www.Bluesharmonica.com who is playing on harmonica and singing using my Bugera V5 Infinium combo system. I arranged the technical assembly, the mic arrangements and the post-processing of this track.

He used a Hohner Super Chromonica 48 Chromatic C for this masterpiece.

We could not solve the sound-proofing during the recording because of the circumstances so there is some crosstalk. continue reading...
